Bars are built on your charts using the closing time of that bar. If you're seeing that 2 minute bars are plotting with a time of odd minutes (:01. :03, etc.), then I am curious what your chart's trading hours template may be. Right-click on your chart > Data series > What are the 'trading hours'? Has this been changed since the issue began? If you switch the trading hours to 'Default 24/7', does the issue persist?

Comment

If you switch back to '<use instrument settings>', can you reintroduce the issue? If so, I believe we can resolve the issue by clearing your cache:

Shut down NinjaTrader.

Open the Documents > NinjaTrader 8 > db folder.

Delete the sub-folder named 'cache'.

Restart NinjaTrader and test.

If the issue persists after clearing your cache with '<use instrument settings>' selected, there may be an issue with your Trading Hours templates. You can update your Trading Hours templates by following these steps:

Futures, foreign currency and options trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

CFTC Rules 4.41 - Hypothetical or Simulated performance results have certain limitations, unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown.
